Poll: Which of the following best describes your outlook on Travon Walker ? This poll is closed. |

He's not an edge rusher. Put 20 pounds on him and move him inside. | 10 | 8.33% | |
Still has work to do as a pass rusher but I see improvement. Let's see how it goes. Inside stunts are enough to get him matched against guards. | 37 | 30.83% | |
He's going to be a beast. I trust the process. | 31 | 25.83% | |
Bust | 27 | 22.50% | |
I wish we'd just switch to a 4-3, leave him outside and put his hand in the ground. | 8 | 6.67% | |

Yes he was pro ready and thats a good thing, thats what you want when you take a player 1st overall. You can be Pro ready and not be a finished product, thats usually what you take with the first couple picks especially if its not a QB. Hutch was far from a finished product. Teams aren't going to take a player that high if they feel hes a finished product, not to mention the consensus number 1 overall pick. You are the only one or one of the very few that thought he was a finished product. A lot of folks didn't question that, you did. He was the consensus number 1 pick for a reason.

You’d think he’d be further ahead this year than one measley sack if he was superior. That’s fair. But I’ve seen instances of Hutch getting a pressure but absolutely losing containment in doing so. He’s a good player for sure, I’m not sure he’d fit on this defense.

Hutch is a instant fix elite player
Walker is a project long-term player that can be anything with the right coaching We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!

The Georgia left tackle Sayer totally neutralized him.
A new broom always sweeps clean.
I see Walker as someone we should stop comparing to Hutch. It’s pointless anyway.
The only question we have to ask is: will Travon Develop into a great player or not. I think Travon is a pretty good player already. He might be miscast a little so I think his production could improve if used differently. But I don’t care about hutch or anyone else. I would be good to see Travon get around 8 sacks this year. Combine that with solid run defending and we have a nice player at age 22. If he becomes a consistent 8-10 sack guy, he becomes someone we want to resign for a long term deal - then I think it’s a success. It comes down to that really. Does Travon get a second contract or do we let him walk? If we fight to keep him here long term, the pick is justified. We don’t want a cj Henderson, derrick Harvey, Justin Blackmon situation.

ESPN's win rate is a tricky stat.
I posted the link to the breakdown of it a while back and I think it is a valuable tool, BUT... A player can be credited with "winning" the rep even if it doesn't directly affect the play. So bear that in mind. Personally - the eye test says Walker is developing and that makes me happy. I take the PFF grades and ESPN win rate stuff with a grain of salt. It IS useful data, just gotta temper it a bit and understand their grading.

He has been very good lately. He even had a play where he was held so bad but it wasn't called. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!
